6th International Conference on Advances in Solidification Processes

The ICASP conference series is a preeminent forum for researchers to discuss the latest advances and future directions in solidification science.

ICASP-6 will cover all aspects of research and applications related to solidification. It will be a great opportunity for researchers and engineers from academia and industry to exchange on recent advances and to discuss outstanding challenges in the field of solidification. The topics covered by the conference include, but are not restricted to:

• Nucleation and grain refinement
• Interfaces
• Microstructure formation during solidification and remelting
• Dendritic growth and dendrite fragmentation
• Eutectic, peritectic, monotectic growth
• Rapid solidification
• Melting
• Stress and deformation, hot tearing, shrinkage, and porosity defects
• Multiphase flow and heat & mass transfer, mushy zone rheology, macrosegregation
• Thermophysical properties, thermodynamics of solidification and melting
• Additive manufacturing and welding
• Casting processes: ingot casting, shape casting, continuous/semi-continuous casting (steel and nonferrous alloys), remelting processes (ESR, VAR, etc.), etc.
• Multiscale modeling methods and through-process modeling
• Experimental and characterization methods
